ASSIGNED NUMBERS

Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context.

After a brave and handsome prince's (James Franco) new bride (Zooey Deschanel) is kidnapped by an evil wizard (Justin Theroux), he must go on a quest with his lazy, underachieving brother (Danny McBride) in order to rescue her. Also with Natalie Portman, Toby James and Damian Lewis. Directed by David Gordon Green. [1:42]

SEX/NUDITY 10 - A woman discovers a minotaur raping a man (the minotaur is behind the man, thrusting), she shouts and the minotaur turns around and we see its fully erect penis; a man approaches the minotaur and stabs it, it falls to the ground (the erection is still visible) and moments later we see the man with the disembodied genitals of the minotaur on a rope around his neck. A man is wearing the severed genitals of a minotaur around his neck as a necklace, and the genitals hit his mouth when he tries to take off the necklace; he offers the genitals to a woman that turns him down, and he then hands the genitals to another man, who places them on the man's shoulder. We see the severed genitals of a minotaur hanging around a man's neck for approximately 20 minutes in various situations and settings, including dangling next to a woman's face as she is strapped to a bed (she grabs the genitals in a suggestive fashion and the man pulls them out of her hands). A man draws a crude cartoon of a man and a woman having sex: we see a man's massive genitals and the woman's bare breasts.► Several topless women, their bare breasts visible, surround a man wearing a diaper (his bare chest is also visible). We see several topless women with their bare breasts lightly covered with mud but still visible.

A man makes a crude remark to his brother about having to "touch" a male squid-man creature, implying sexual release; the man touches the creature's crotch area (no nudity is visible), the creature makes suggestive moaning noises and we then see the man wanting to wipe off his hands.► Throughout the movie there are countless references to rape, including a man telling a woman he is going to have forcible sex with her on over ten occasions, a man telling a woman that she will have his child on multiple occasions, two men discussing how another man is intending to rape a woman, a man tells another man that he is going to "enter" a woman and that she has been "pre-moisted" by three elderly women (he does not explain what he means), and a man asks another man a series of questions concerning another man having forcible sex with the man's wife. A man makes a series of crude gestures that imply that a man is forcing another man to perform oral sex on him; we see a man watching and laughing.► A man and woman kiss passionately, the woman offers to have sex with the man, she lifts her skirt and we see a metal bikini-style bottom with a lock, the woman explains that it is a chastity belt and that she needs to find a key from another woman in order to have sex.

SUBSTANCE USE - On multiple occasions we see a man smoking presumably marijuana (called "herb," "dankest dank," "sticky icky" and "magical herb") and acting intoxicated: We see him smoking from hookahs with another man, from a pipe shared by another man and a male creature and from a pipe by himself and we see an animated version of a man and another man smoking what is implied to be marijuana, we see a room filled with marijuana plants, a man makes a comment about the plant's potential potency, and a man rips the wings and head off a fairy and grinds its body into a dust which he then snorts. Several men appear to be drunk while sitting in a bar and drinking from steins, and a man offers a group of men liquor to get drunk (they turn him down).

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process.
